Buy some simple rails for about £6 from places such as Argos, Asda, B&M and Walmart. Ones you have bought enough for all your clothes, buy one extra for any new clothes you may get.

Shoe racks are great for showing off all your amazing shoes. These are also very cheap and sometimes are built in to the rails at the bottom.

In one corner get a corner cabinet. The best colours are either white or black, and if you want to look extra modern, go for a gloss one. In the draws can be stored any hair accessories. on top Use the surface for make-up and perfumes.
